Hey!
So I'm finding some of my apps can't seem to "get data" from the mobile network.
For instance opera mini can open pages like no big deal, but the built in browser, or even Opera Mobile can't load anything and give a "cannot connect to proxy server" error.
Or, facebook works fine, but the xda app never connects.
I am on virtuous 1.0.2, but I'm pretty sure it's not a rom thing cuz I've been on virtuous for a long time, and this just started a few days ago.
Also tried, in order, reflashing radio, rils, other radios/rils,wiping efs partition and reflashing radios/rils, superwipe then restoring nadroid backup from when this was not an issue, wiping cache, wiping dalvik, and wiping data of all affected apps. Everything short of total wipe and reinstalling everything with no data (last resort please!).
My only last thought is something to do with symlinks like adfree does to eliminate app access to certain IP addresses.
Is there some kind of symlink going on that is redirecting some apps to incorrect IP's or something? Is there a way for me to ditch all external symlinks.
All apps work on wifi.
Any thoughts?
Edit: wait...perhaps adfree is the culprit? I'm going to try reverting in the app and see if it helps.
Edit again: no dice.

I decided to try my first custom ROM... (installing virtous) and have a few questions/issues:
1) I started with a Nandroid backup.
2) I did a full titanium backup
3) I used ROM manager to install Virtous (did a full system swipe)...
Ok.. here is where I am having my issues
After the install, I went back to the marketplace and installed titanium backup.
What option should I restore? I would like to get all the widgets and data restored. I tried restore all apps+system data but I am wondering if that is reinstalling the bloatware that virtous removed. If so, what are the correct options in Titanium backup I should use?
Next, I tried to reinstall everything but I got that dreaded low on storage and then out of storage space error. My phone has lots of storage both internal and on the SD card - so the restore (I am guessing) failed at some indeterminate point. Most of my widgets were not loading properly (beautiful widget, pure calendar, multi-icon etc) after the attempted restore.
Regardless, even if I clean-up the widgets, the low memory message persisted so I was left with no choice but to revert to my previous nandroid backup .
So... how do you install a custom rom and easily reestablish your previous state/settings without getting the low/ out of storage warning?
Also, one of my goals is to get a deodexed rom so I can install custom themes (e.g., battery mods, etc). Can I just flash the deodexed stock rom over my current rom (I did not understand deodexed when I first upgraded to froyo) without having to do a swipe? Will I run into any issues?
Thanks
I tried again with less apps/ data and still have no luck.
I did a restore all apps and system data from titanium, got a low storage than out of storage error (the phone has over 60% of its storage available so I know I am nowhere near close to actually using all the storage).
When titanium completed, most apps forced close (gmail, rom manager, etc) so I assume the storage error is impacting the restore.
Back to my nandroid backup again.
If I am running stock Froyo, can I just flash a new sense based froyo without wiping? (trying to find a way to experiment and really want to get a deodexed rom installed)
When new ROM is flashed, in TB, try reinstalling only user apps, not system apps.
Why?
The new ROM you flash and the ROM you are coming from should both have system apps already in them, so why reinstall system apps from the old ROM that most likely exist in the new ROM?
But how do I reestablish the previous settings? Or do I have to reconfigure all my accounts, etc each time I install a new rom.
Thanks
Me too. How to correct?
uncommon 1.1 on my phone is doing same thing. 1.0 had no problem.
Just a theory as I haven't tried to install another ROM...
I noticed the touchdown data file on my phone was quite big (>70mb) - it appears that when touchdown's data file gets very large, the message appears more often (looks likes there is a bug in Android with large data-sets). I cleared touchdown's data and resynced which shrunk the data file to ~12mb. I reinstalled all the apps I removed to try and eliminate the memory error and so far have been running smoothly.
When I have some time, I am going to try another ROM and see if I can restore without any storage issues. I still am curious how everyone resets their settings from ROM to ROM (or do they manually configure everything each time)
After poking around in astro file manager, contacts(cross-linked mess), and uninstalling some rarely used programs all to no avail......
I fixed my "low on program memory" notification by emptying my deleted items in the mail app- a hotmail account that is rarely used.

To be on the safe side, just reinstall only apps, with or without data. There is no real point in wiping days, and yet reinstalling system apps and data. Kind of defeats the purpose. And yes, manually add accounts. Takes more time, but minimizes conflicts. Shouldn't take more than 30 minutes, which is a small price to pay to eliminate potential headaches.

I've run into this as well. In fact it was the original reason I decided to move forward with rooting my phone since I had to wipe it anyway. Has anyone looked into what program monitors this and flags the error? Is memory not being reported correctly, or is there a tolerance that maybe we need to tweak in the code somewhere?
So, my GVoice app stopped working about a week ago. It would just crash on load. I went to clear the cache for it, and it was at 1.17GB. It wouldn't clear, I couldn't delete it with temproot. I renamed the folder, and that fixed it. The data is still there though.
The next day I went into my app management, and my browser, facebook, and a couple other apps have around 500-800MB. Again, I hit clear data/clear cache, it doesn't give me an error, but it also doesn't clear it.
Any idea whats going on? This happening to anyone else? I have run the cache cleaner from recovery as well. I just updated tot he new OTA, problem is still there. Everything seems to run fine though.
Sounds like something you did in one of your applications or in the settings is "Protecting" the cache. My best suggestion when all else fails is backup using titanium backup and then do a restore to factory settings and data in both bootloader and in recovery. Backup the sd card and wipe it as well, then just put personal data back to your sd card and restore with titanium, and all problems should be resolved
All,
I'm having a bit of an issue after flashing the Android Revolution HD 5.1.6 ROM - it seems that whenever I try and download an app from the market that it fails to download.
I originally flashed the ROM and forgot to do the EXT4 so re-did it flashing the EXT4 first but still have an issue.
Strange thing is, my marketplace apps synced themselves on initial boot after flashing the rom so I have them, it's just getting any new apps that fails.
Any ideas?
Menu/settings/applications/ click the all tab. Scroll down to market and clear data and cache. Then try again. Should fix it.

I am having this problem exactly, except going from 5.1.6 to 5.1.7 with the EXT4 data partition format. Marketplace synced all my apps fine on first boot, but updating and installing any other apps is unsuccessful. Installing from market.android.com works fine. Clearing the market cache doest fix. Any ideas people?
Look for a folder in your sd card named lost dir and delete everything in it. Then delete any apk files in the android secure folder. Then wipe market data and cache. Then load market and see what happens.

I just flashed the 1.32 RUU and we're having the same problem there too, so Im gonna root it and use a fresh SD card on AR5 and see where that gets me...
Right Ive just flashed the 5.1.7 rom including the data partition wipe... On the SD card LITERALLY was a couple of folders containing mp3s and photos. Nothing android at all. I still cannot install anything from the marketplace. Any more ideas guys? It doesnt appear to be from the phone? Maybe Googles side?
I still can't get this working. I've tried clearing the cache partition and dalvik, fresh Rom install, clean SD card. I can install from the market website, but everything from the app fails.
Edit: just to clarify, clearing data partition and setting up a new Google account fixes the market... Which is pointless cause my paid apps are with my main gmail account. I restored the nandroid of the data partition and market is back to not working. It's becoming more and more clear that this is a Google issue with my account.
I'm also running ARHD 5.1.7 and I've found the market tries to download apps, then stops. Restarting the phone, and the file(s) download straightway without a problem... I suspect it's a Google issue, rather than a rom problem.
Same here, tryed also with new google account and works for it but not with my old account...
Oookay I'm up working again.... (AR 5.1.7 is brilliant BTW)
Id read about making sure Google talk was signed in, and id checked a fair few times, but it didn't work. I did just read something about logging out of talk and logging back in, so tried that and it worked. All fixed.
Worked for me !!! Thx a lot
All of a sudden a couple days ago, Gmail on my rooted Incredible (running CM 7.1 and incredikernel) began acting sluggish, syncing poorly, and force closing. Soon thereafter I got a message reading Google Services Framework was not responding, followed by FCs of pretty much every app I tried to open: maps, market, voice, etc.
It happened once before due to an issue with Google Music sync. Turning that off, waiting a day or two, and resuming sync did the trick. This time I'm seeing sync errors with Gmail (on each of the 2 accounts I have set up), Contacts, and Music. All at different times. And nothing seems to solve the problem
I've tried seemingly everything to no avail.
Thus far I've: wiped Dalvik cache, wiped cache, rolled back to an old Nandroid backup, reinstalled CM 7.1, reinstalled GApps, reinstalled GMail app from the market, wiped all data and cache from Gmail/Google Services/Contacts/Contacts Storage/Calendar/Calendar Storage, and ultimately did a full factory reset through Recovery.
After reinstalling CM 7.1 + GApps last night, things seemed to be OK, but I'm back to everything FC'ing today. If I have sync turned off, I can use the phone. But even then, my wifi/radio icons in the status bar are permanently white.
Any ideas? I don't seem to have any corrupt contacts. And setting up a one-time sync of each Gmail account (including contacts and calendar) didn't seem to be any harm. Only thing I can think is if my Titanium back up had something corrupt in it. I did restore that (apps only, no system data) after factory reset.
Thanks in advance for any help
Are other apps syncing correctly? I'd try a fresh start WITHOUT restoring anything through titanium.
Thank you.
Is it possible to determine which files backed up through Titanium might be causing the issue (or otherwise try to prevent against this down the road)? Alternately, after a full wipe/restore through Nandroid, is it possible to restore individual apps from a batch Titanium back up?
I know it seems to be specific to Incredibles that the typical wipe of calendar/contacts/gmail doesn't get rid of Google Services Framework FCs... so hoping to be sure all bases are covered.
Thanks again!
Yes, you "can" restore apps in titanium but have to be careful. It seems like most people don't have problems restoring just apps. Some are even OK with app+app data. Its NOT recommended to restore system data, especially if you're going from sense to AOSP or vice versa. Personally, I redownload my apps fresh from the market, using the automated Google restore or the web market, which you can download apps straight to your phone from. I've never run into any problems doing it this way.
Sounds like my GFs problem too, except the FC'ing happens once and a while and I have to format the whole phone to fix it.
My Incredible with CM7 is having the same problems
I was using an older CM7 nightly which had been stable for several months.
Out of the blue, all my google apps start crashing, as well as the framework.
Force closes EVERYWHERE.
I loaded the latest nightly, and rebooted. Same problem.
Had some trouble with Titanium Backup destroying the functionality of my home button along the way... so I started from scratch (as much as possible):
Wiped the Delvik Cache, Formatted the Cache, Wiped the Data.
Installed newest CM7 and gapps from cyanogenmod.
Ran "Fix Permissions".
Reverted back to the included ADW.Launcher instead of the paid version I previously had.
Manually installed a skeleton set of apps, and used titanium backup only to restore data on a handful of apps that really needed it.
It was stable for a day, then the same force close issues with all my google apps and the google framework.
Rebooting the phone seems to help temporarily, but I hate having to reboot my phone twice a day.
I've been updating to new nightlies every day now, hoping that one of them will finally fix this problem.
Do I need to flash a new radio, perhaps?
What could I be missing?
When you do a fresh install, wipe system and boot as well data/factory reset. Also, try downloading and installing apps from market, not titanium (restore nothing from titanium). Your radio should be a 2.15 series, but also shouldn't cause this.
Found this thread looking for my answer and found a solution somewhere else, just as an FYI here:
The strange thing is, I'm NOT out of space. My SD card and internal memory have plenty of room. Then I remembered: The Incredible only has about 300 MB of application storage partitioned. Cyanogen seems to work around this problem, EXCEPT for apps from the Marketplace. They will still say there is not enough space. Other install sources (raw apk, amazon, etc), work just fine.
I remembered that I installed Peggle from Amazon yesterday, which was an 80 MB download. I also remembered I couldn't re-install Angry Birds that day because the Market said I was out of space.
So! I uninstalled Peggle and a couple more large apps I don't need, turned all my syncing back on, no DB I/O errors in LogCat, no force closes, no nothing!
So here's my diagnosis:
-HTC Incredible only partitions ~300 MB for applications+data
-Cyanogen lets users install MORE than 300 MB of applications+data
-Android services (such as market and sync) don't understand Cyanogen is doing
-Android services fail gracefully (like market), or not so gracefully (like Sync) when you are out of 'storage'.
-Making sure you have some "free" space in your /data/data/ folder (I have about 30 MB) causes these force closes to stop.

this is what I tried
fastboot some kernel
wipe everything
flash some ROM
Until that point is fine.
the problem comes when i try to restore system data (using titanium backup pro). It says backup was successfully restored, and a reboot is recommended, but when I do, it gets stuck in the bootloop.
Restoring user apps + data works fine. Its just the system apps thats causing the problem
This happens with any ROM/Kernel combination I try.
Also, while wiping everything, I get the message "no app2sd partition found skipping format of sd-ext"
Are you restoring another ROM's system apps?
What system apps are you restoring and why?
Messages, Wifi pairings, call log, contacts, user dictionary ... etc
Is that a bad idea ?
Other rom system apps won't work and that's the problem I think... Try some other apps for getting back those like message backup, SwiftKey etc... You can start wifi pairings again
solved.
while doing batch restore, the system apps for messaging, call log etc were being restored, even though i wanted just the data. Did them manually.
Thanks
From personal experience restoring the system data like message storage call log contacts is safe.... not sure about wifi pairings.... try restoring each system data one by one.... rebooting each time instead of doing a batch restore.... might just help!
